Little lines, big memories

Keep the funny, the sweet, the completely out of nowhere things they say.

Each one kept in seconds, stamped with their exact age, in a private keepsake that lasts.

They say something perfect.
Then it’s gone

The made-up words. The questions out of nowhere. The dramatic little opinions. You promise yourself you’ll remember, you type one into Notes, and life moves on. By bedtime the exact words have faded. It’s not you, it happens forty times a week.

Little Lines is how, from now on, you keep them.

Twenty seconds, then back to the moment

1. They say it

That word, that question, that opinion only they could have.

2. You type it

Open it, type the line, done. No scrapbook, no setup, no perfect handwriting.

3. It’s kept

Stamped with their exact age, in a timeline that grows with them.

No prompts, no streaks, nothing to keep up. Just the moments, as they happen.

Built to keep who they are right now

A kept line: When I grow up I want to be a dog. A big one. Elijah, almost five.A kept line, overheard from the front seat: If Mom says no, just ask Dad three times. The third time he'll say yes. Stella, six and a half.A kept line, pushes her plate away at dinner: My tummy's full but my dessert tummy is empty. Olivia, just four.

The Journey

From our family to yours

We’re Jeroen and Inez: a product builder and a lifespan psychologist, and parents ourselves.

We kept our kids’ lines in a paper notebook, we stopped too early, and most of those lines are gone. Little Lines is the place we wish we’d had.

The science behind it is the research Inez teaches at the Open University of the Netherlands.

What a line becomes

Little Lines app screen: Scroll back to three

Scroll back to three

Every line lands in one timeline, stamped with their exact age. Scroll back any evening and hear exactly who they were at three.

Little Lines app screen: Send it to grandma

Send it to grandma

Turn any line into a beautiful little card for grandma, the group chat, the other parent. It’s free, and nothing is ever shared unless you send it.

Little Lines app screen: Open their chapter

Open their chapter

A chapter is a birthday or a whole year, bundled into a little book of their lines, made by the app, not by you. Flip through it, save it for the people who love them.
